Is the top of the bag flexible enough to be squashed down a couple inches to push under an airline seat ?

I think it can its not a big bag by carry standards my dog was only 10 lbs when we flew with her a larger dog may not fit

YES, although I cannot recommend this bag. A better quality one is surprisingly enough, the Armarcat bag by far and it will also squash down.
42417
Yes. It's perfect for going under the seat in front of you on a plane. Much more flexible than many other soft sided pet carriers.

Yes, but the bag is rather small so I don't know if there would be room for an animal inside if the top were squashed down.

Yes, I have flown my 8lb yorkiepoo in it 6 times in the past year with 4 different airlines.

It might depend on the type of plane you are flying on. I usually fly SWA and have never had a problem fitting this bag under the seat. It works well because there are flexible bars that go over the top of the bag keeping the bag from smooshing our loved ones. I definitely recommend this bag when traveling with my cat!

Actually yes. For a polyester bag it does compact tight with a little effort. Overall a pretty good bag for the price.

Only if the bag is supported on the passenger seat. The bag needs to rest either on a flat luggage rack or the passenger seat.

It is probably checkable but soft bag would not protect it. Maybe the airline would store it in the front of airplane like they do strollers! It would b worth asking!

Yes! I use mine for my to and from work commute with a change of clothes. It would fit under an airplane seat and follows all TSA size guidelines for carry on.

Its a fairly stiff bag and I don't think it would fit under the airplane seat well. I own the Argo petscope and that is made for going under an airline seat

I suppose it could depend on the airplane, but mine was full on a trip to Florida and back, and it fit under the seat in front of me without any problem.

You could use it as a soft seat but it is a little bulky. It would have to be a long flight or you have something like hip pain to make it worthwhile. Have not tried to get it past TSA.

I can't say for sure. All I can tell you is that the measurements they give are very accurate. And the bag is very flexible so there is room to stretch a bit.

I can speak for the Messenger Bag and yes, it will fit under an airplane or jet seat if not packed to bulging.

Yes, it is very lightweight (vinyl construction) - because of the soft-sides it fits well under airline seats.

yes, there is a thin padding sewn in across the bottom of this bag. I'd guess it is no more than 1/4" thick.

Yes it is, I just flew American Airlines and United with it. And to be honest none of the airlines really care because it's a soft bag so it can squish under any seat and the people at the airport never really measure those.

Yes.. It fits perfectly under an airplane seat and I even had room to stuff my purse right next to it two weeks ago when I was traveling by air.

It is not that flexible. It would have to fold up so much as to ruin the cargo tech liner. We would take it out to use our third row seats.

I have not been on a flight yet, but I would not expect it to be a problem. It will fit under your seat in my opinion!
